    I am overseas where no one makes proper tea.
    i have a pot of Higgins Country House Blend in the afternoon on my own. It has really big leaves. When i am really homesick i make scones and listen to radio 4 as well! I have to use bottled water for good tea as the water in the tap has been treated with something which leaves scum on the surface!
    no dusty tea bags can make that flavour that you get from a pot. My late mother in law put the leaves on the hydrangeas.

    A tissane of fresh mint leaves is very refreshing and you can grow your own very cheaply....it grows very fast.
